Shepard:I am curious though…comic shop?
Denver:Did I say that? I meant COFFEE shop.
Shepard:No, no, it’s too late now. I know you’re a closet nerd.
Denver:*shrugs* They have free WiFi.
Shepard:And the comics aren’t bad, right?
Denver:I don’t know what you’re talking about.
Shepard:Whatever you need to tell yourself.
Shepard:We need a plan of attack, but I have practice, so I gotta run. Later, Denver.
Denver:Bye, Shepard.

Shepard:Can we talk for a second about how our friends’ names are Allie & AJ? Like that Disney girl band that was popular several years back?
Denver:I have no idea who you’re talking about, but this is hilarious.
Shepard:How do you not know? They were ALL over the place.
Denver:Um…
Shepard:I’m waiting.
Denver:You can’t laugh.
Shepard:I feel like I need to be very honest with you, Denver, and I cannot promise I won’t laugh.
Denver:We aren’t allowed to watch TV outside of family time. My parents keep the TV in a locked cabinet. We can only watch it on movie night.
Shepard:For your own sanity, I hope you’re joking.
Denver:I am not.
Shepard:I think I need a moment to let this sink in.
Shepard:HOW… WHAT… WHO… Holy shit.
Denver:You feel better?
Shepard:No.
Denver:I don’t either.
Denver:I just Googled who you’re talking about. That is quite funny.
Shepard:Just think—if they get married, they’ll have to live with that for the rest of their lives.
Denver:Another reason we need to talk some sense into them.
Denver:Any luck convincing AJ he’s a moron?
Shepard:No. He’s too stupid to realize it.
